Tone and Theme
Tone
The tone of this book would be mysterious because throughout the entire book, Ali, Dulcie,and Emma always have something going on and something always happens and you are always on the endge of your seat and want to keep reading to figure out what is going to happen next.Theme
The theme would have to be to believe what little kids say to you, even if it sounds crazy. I say this because Emily is a little girl and she is constantly saying things that sound impossible and no one ever believes her. At the end, all the characters find out she was telling the truth all along and they know they should hve trusted her.
